Patent number: 8646073Abstract: To protect a user of a social network, the user's activity is monitored during a baseline monitoring period to determine a baseline activity record. If subsequently monitored activity of the user deviates sufficiently from the baseline activity record to indicate abuse (hijacking) of the user's account, the abuse is mitigated, for example by notifying the user of the abuse. Monitored activity includes posting links, updating statuses, sending messages, and changing a profile. Monitoring also includes logging times of the user activity. Monitoring anomalous profile changes does not need a baseline.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2011Date of Patent: February 4, 2014Assignee: Check Point Software Technologies Ltd.Inventor: Gil Raviv

Patent number: 8166198Abstract: The delivery of web content over an IP based network is accelerated by utilizing an intermediate node to receive requests for ML files, analyze ML files and create multipart objects that compound two or more browser's objects referenced by browser's links in the original ML file. The ML file is modified by replacing browser's links with multipart URLs that represent the multipart objects. When a subsequent user requests the page, the modified ML page is sent to the user and the multipart objects are more quickly and efficiently loaded into the user's browser.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2007Date of Patent: April 24, 2012Assignee: Flahs Networks, Ltd.Inventors: Gil Raviv, Giora Kosoi

Patent number: 6045514Abstract: The invention provides a method of determining a breathing resistance index of a sleeping subject from a set of respiratory sounds. The method includes the steps of selecting a first set of respiratory events of the set of respiratory sounds and manually determining a classification content of the first set of respiratory events. The method further includes extrapolating the classification content of the first set of respiratory events to an at least second set of respiratory events and determining a breathing resistance index based upon the classification content of the at least second set of respiratory events.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 1997Date of Patent: April 4, 2000Assignee: SNAP Laboratories, L.L.C.Inventors: Gil Raviv, Charles Z.

Patent number: 5444786Abstract: An adaptive snoring signal suppression system globally cancels snoring signals by determining a canceling signal based on a received snoring signal. The system creates a doublet between a plane of a speaker and the source of the snoring signal such that at the plane of the speaker, the canceling signal is 180 degrees out of phase with the snoring signal as measured at the source. The system uses digital signal processing to adaptively estimate a snoring sound canceling signal based on past snoring signals.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 1993Date of Patent: August 22, 1995Assignee: SNAP Laboratories L.L.C.Inventor: Gil Raviv

Patent number: 4949725Abstract: An apparatus and method for display of biologically induced electrical activity is disclosed. The apparatus includes sensors for measuring EEG or MEG signals from a living body and using these signals to compute one or more dipoles representative of the measured electrical activity. Values of the electrical activity may also be computed for discrete locations in or on the body. The operator has the ability to input a variety of different computational specifications or criteria to facilitate dipole computation. The resulting computed data may be selectively displayed as a dipole within a three-dimensional representation of the body, as a movie-like series of dipoles, as a composite or tracing of dipoles or as various topographic maps. The operator also has the ability to change the display to provide different perspective views or to enlarge the displayed scene.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1988Date of Patent: August 21, 1990Assignee: Bio-Logic Systems CorporationInventors: Gil Raviv, Ivan Pal, Dean Koester, David Kripal, James N.

Patent number: 4792196Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for the holographic examination of the internal features of cavities and passageways of a structure. The apparatus employs a laser beam source positioned external of the structure coupled to a multilayer fiber waveguide which conveys the reference beam and object beam, in at least two different layers of the multilayer fiber, which combine in a holographic recordation means to form a hologram of the internal features of the structure, or under certain circumstances a holographic interferogram of the selected features is formed.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 1986Date of Patent: December 20, 1988Assignee: Northwestern UniversityInventors: Gil Raviv, Michel E.

Patent number: 4744029Abstract: An apparatus for performing manipulation and analysis of data characteristic of brain electrical activity of a patient. Computer analysis is utilized to provide the most useful form of topographical maps and related data for evaluation of a patient by a user. The application can be operated as part of an integral unit or remote from the location where brain electrical activity signals are measured on the patient.Threshold circuitry ensures that only signals meeting predetermined conditions are stored. A user modifiable digital filter allows for on-line analysis of changes in filter characteristics. A simultaneaous display of a plurality of topographical maps in visual summary format is presented. Readability is enhanced by showing only the color codes that actually appear in the topographical map. Montages can be created.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 1984Date of Patent: May 10, 1988Assignee: Bio-Logic Systems CorporationInventors: Gabriel Raviv, Gil Raviv

Patent number: 4649482Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring and operating on brain input activity signals to provide topographical maps characteristic of patient brain activity. The apparatus senses the brain input activity signals and processes the signals to provide detailed information on patient brain activity. Complete topographical maps of the patient brain are activity constructed by a line-by-line interpolation method. A color coded scale adjacent the topographical map is utilized to provide additional information on patient brain activity. The user has a number of options available to select various information for display and analysis.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 1984Date of Patent: March 10, 1987Assignee: Bio-logic Systems Corp.Inventors: Gabriel Raviv, Gil Raviv
